The purpose of the physics course is to focus on classical physics and modern studies of physics interpretations about God’s creation. This course takes a critical approach to the history of science, the relationship of science and religion, and the application of physics. We will study Newton's Laws of motion to Optics to Magnetism to Electricity and Astrophysics.
Course Content:
A. Participation (35%)- Students are expected to engage in classroom discussion with thoughtful dialogue.
B. Quizzes (15%)- Students will have oral quizzes over the material discussed in class each day. ***Students are encouraged to study the notes from that day’s class each night in preparation for oral quizzes.
C. Lab Reports (30%) - Students will conduct various experiments in class and there is an accompanied lab form that needs to be completely filed out after each lab.
D. Tests (20%)- All tests will be taken from notes in class and are an accumulation of quiz questions from throughout the week or weeks. Students will be given a study guide, and/or we will review in class prior to a test.
